Overbought oversold signals are pretty important when entering a trade, i mostly use it to decide on the position size.
but, it can be seriously misleading in strong trending markets and cause massive losses when used alone.
you can see the massive rally btw 1997-2000 after RSI signaled overbought and kept making new lows...
General RSI Indicators applied to the ETCBTC D chart (where present). This helped me in taking in the lesson below from Crypto Cred.
I hope others find it useful.

The relative strength index (RSI) is a momentum indicator. It is primary used to attempt to identify overbought and oversold conditions. It is considered overbought when the RSI indictor is above 70 and it is a sign to make a short, and oversold when is below 30 and it is a sign to make a long.
